You are so shallow. Cities are known for eternity for their discoveries, innovations, scientific and technological achievements. Thats why we know of Cambridge, Silicon Valley, Boston (for Harvard and MIT). What pearl of knowledge has Dubai given the world?

This is one flaw to your logic, OIL!!!! I'm tired of people comparing pakistan with western or middle eastern countries. Truth is we are behind because we don't have a competitive advantage of natural resource or anyother. Pakistan can only be the best pakistan it can be, please stop with the comparisons.

Congratulations Dubai. 4m the side of pakistani's. We are happy that being a muslim state, we are with the UAE pleasures. But there is a great lesson for us that dubai is celebrating its 41st national and we 64th. But economically and socially we are lagging behind too much. We all people and govt. Should seriously ponder over this issue and note all the reasons that y we r so much behind dubai. And we must remove all those rubbish and stand in front of worlds leading nations. Regards. Rana Muhammad Usman. Okara.
